Okay, so let me tell you about this whole life path number thing. I got into it a while back, and it’s pretty wild. My life path number is 8, and I recently started looking into how it vibes with other numbers. Today, I’m gonna dig into how 8 gets along with 3, because I’ve had some interesting experiences in that department.
First off, I had to figure out what the deal was with these numbers. I did a bunch of reading. Basically, your life path number is supposed to tell you about your personality and what you’re all about. You find it by adding up the digits of your birth date until you get a single number. Turns out, 8 is all about being driven, ambitious, and wanting to be in charge. 3s, on the other hand, are supposed to be creative, social butterflies, and a bit all over the place.
Now, I’ve dated a couple of people who I think were probably 3s. One, in particular, comes to mind. She was an artist – super talented, always coming up with crazy ideas. We hit it off right away, there were seriously fireworks. I was drawn to her energy and free spirit, and she seemed to like how I had my life together. We were painting the town red, going to all sorts of events. I remember one time she got us into this exclusive art show, and I was totally impressed. I had a few friends who told me it won’t work out between us, because we were too different. She was super talented and we shared a lot of good times, which made me realize that 3 and 8 can be really good with communication.
Here’s where it got tricky.
- I’m a planner. I like to have things organized and know what’s coming next. She was the total opposite. Spontaneity was her middle name.
- I’d try to make plans, and she’d be like, “Let’s just see where the day takes us!” It drove me nuts sometimes.
- And then there was the whole ambition thing. I’m always striving for the next big thing, working towards my goals. She was more about enjoying the moment, which is great, but sometimes I felt like she wasn’t taking life seriously enough.
We had some pretty big blowouts. I remember this one time, I had this huge work event, and she wanted to go on a last-minute road trip. We ended up arguing for hours. I did start trying to find a balance. I went on a trip with her without too much planning. I tried to see things in her way, but it just never lasted long enough. It’s like, we were speaking different languages or something.
So, what did I learn from all this?
Well, it’s clear that 8s and 3s can be a bit of a mixed bag. We’re like oil and water in some ways, but there’s also this spark, you know? I think if both people are willing to put in the work, it could actually be an amazing relationship. You’d have the best of both worlds – the drive and stability of the 8, and the creativity and fun of the 3. It’s a matter of the people themselves, not just the numbers. Even if you found the best combo according to this “life path”, if the people don’t work on the relationship, it is doomed to fail. I am still trying to look for my ideal number, though, but I still had a good time with this 3.
I even tried one of those life path compatibility calculators online. It gave us a so-so rating, which kind of confirmed what I was experiencing. But hey, I’m not giving up on 3s altogether. I’m still open to the possibility. I guess the key is finding someone who gets me, and who I get, regardless of what some number says. I just need to find the one that is willing to work things out with me, no matter how tough. I also read somewhere that good communication is really important between the two numbers. Now I understand why.
It’s all a journey, right? And these life path numbers are just one piece of the puzzle. It was an eye-opening experience. I’m just sharing my story, hoping it might resonate with someone out there. Maybe you’ve had similar experiences? Let me know in the comments! I’d love to hear your thoughts.
